Hope for Hopeless Teeth™
The world’s first and ONLY FDA clearance with scientific proof for True Bone Regeneration™
The LANAP® Protocol is an FDA-cleared, minimally invasive laser treatment for moderate to severe periodontal disease (gum disease). It offers a more comfortable regenerative treatment experience for patients and faster recovery compared with traditional osseous surgery.
True Regeneration™
The LANAP® Protocol is the world’s first and only FDA clearance for true periodontal regeneration based on human histologic studies using the PerioLase® MVP-7™, a free-running pulsed Nd:YAG laser.
No other laser company…
No other laser device…
No other laser periodontal therapy…
…has human histologic studies that show periodontal regeneration – true regeneration of the attachment apparatus (new cementum, new periodontal ligament and new alveolar bone) on a previously diseased root surface when used specifically in the LANAP® Protocol. 510(k) K15176
No biologics used!
No exogenous growth factors!
No bone grafts!
No artificial membranes!
No scaffolds!
No stitches!
Clinically proven results
Hundreds of documented clinical cases demonstrate a decrease in pocket depth by 50% in more than 90% of patient pockets through regeneration, not amputation.
What is LANAP®?
LANAP® stands for “Laser-Assisted New Attachment Procedure” and offers a more comfortable treatment alternative to conventional surgery with faster recovery. LANAP® = LAR™ is the only scientifically, research proven methodology that results in true periodontal regeneration, new bone growth and gum tissue reattachment.
LANAP® and LAR™ are accomplished with the PerioLase® MVP-7™, a free-running, variable pulsed Nd:YAG laser. The 7 variable pulse durations can be thought of as “different lasers” in one device that employ discrete and discriminating tissue interactions.
The LANAP® = LAR™ treatment is one of the most successful protocols in treating gum disease because it can target the source of the inflammation without hurting or removing any healthy gum tissue, slow or stop attachment loss, decrease pocket depth, and allow the body to recover from the chronic infection without the need for a scalpel or sutures.
How the LANAP® Protocol works
You can’t change physics! The success of the LANAP® Protocol is rooted in laser physics and the unique interaction between the tissue in the mouth and the variable pulsed wavelength of the PerioLase® MVP-7™ 1064 Nd:YAG dental laser.
The 1064 wavelength passes through water and hydroxyapatite but is absorbed in melanin and hemoglobin. Simply put, the wavelength targets the diseased tissue without harming healthy tissue.
The laser light penetrates 4 mm beyond the tissue surface to effectively kill bacteria. Once the site is clean, the laser interacts with the hemoglobin to establish a stable fibrin clot, creating a closed and sealed system for regeneration to begin.

Key steps of the LANAP® Protocol
Scientifically supported
The LANAP® Protocol is scientifically supported with 651 positive patient outcomes published since 1998. This includes 25 peer-reviewed publications, eight book chapters, two prospective human histology studies, two prospective randomized controlled clinical trials, three retrospective consecutive case series evaluations and two retrospective blind in vivo human bacteriological studies.
Proven with human histology
